14 months or something?... Poor second child

Oh Ashlyn, you are so cute. You're like 14.5 months now... practically 2 already both in size of clothing and in attitude :) I'm sorry we've neglected your milestones but the memories are certainly there. You've been walking and are learning to go down the stairs which still gives me heart failure.  
 You love your sippy cup. But only like this one with the straw. You drink all day.  You loooove your bunny.  You say "bbbaaaaaeeeyy" when you see it and you give it loving hugs when you get it.  Your curls! Oh man, Daddy (and mommy, but him especially) loves your curls.  They get all sweaty and are so sweet and bouncy. Might be our favorite part of your beautiful self.


You are very very funny. I love to watch you discover things and explore your findings. You waddle over to Ari to show her. You have a special sound for Ari's name but it sounds nothing like "Ari".  When I ask you to smile or show me your teeth, you make the above and below faces.  Seriously, adorable.  You make beginning words and though it sounds like gibberish, we love it. You are trying to communicate and its much better than the squawks you used to do.


You like to dance and that shoulder shimmy makes me smile regardless of the day I've had.  You have a lot of spunk and your fiesty spirit is very opinionated.  I love it. I have two strong leaders to mold and form into World Changers.  

We've been dealing with some serious issues with Ari's daytime disrespect and Ashlyn watches with a concerned face and is learning so much.  My favorite part of this is when she waddles over to Ari's corner (while she's being disciplined) and basically mocks my arm, voice and stance and grunts at Ari. I laugh because Ari gets very angry at her.  


Even though Ashlyn is walking around now, she still has just as many rolls. I love her little wrinkles and soft skin. I know this will change in the next year so I'm soaking it in as much as I can!

We love you dear Ashlyn and we're really enjoying watching you thrive and change.
